Enriched uranium
A glowing green pellet: the uranium that burns.
In the game
How to get it
A centrifuge makes one out of 16 voxels of uranium ore in 40 s; a waste cask gives one back for two spent rods.
What it is for
Three of them in a steel tube make two fuel rods.
Why it exists
Only part of the uranium burns: the centrifuge keeps that part.
The same text the game shows in its progress tree and on the item's sheet (I).
